This constellation represents King Cepheus of Ethiopia. Although probably best known as
the husband of Queen Cassiopeia and father of Andromeda, he was also one of the Argonauts
who travelled with Jason in search of the Golden Fleece. On this epic journey
he was accompanied by either one or several of his sons (there are differing accounts
as to the number).
